just heard that cookstown rider mark young has died as a result of an accident in the 250 race at the nw200
the incident was at mathers cross which is probaby the fastest part of the circuit
prayers and thoughts go to his family and freinds

Hi Malc.. I've just got back and indeed the fatality marred the weekends racing

, there was lots of red flags, re-starts and delays with the last Superbike race and final 600 races being cancelled due to the weather which was real bad later on

I'm cold and knackered but had a good time and will post some pics as soon as I load em onto Photobucket
